This exquisite Bayfront residence with 289 feet of seawall on Sarasota Bay is the definition of grace and elegance. Sparkling Bay views from every room enhance the more than 8,000sf of indoor living space. Vast outdoor terraces, stunning landscaping with picturesque water fountains and open Bay views offer a sense of serenity at this dramatic setting on an oversized peninsula lot on Country Club Shores. The residence was designed and built by architect Henri Schouten, who created a home that is a study in harmony and proportion in the Dutch minimalist architectural style. The result is a home that while quite large, is also intimate in dimension and character. The residence features two Master Suites with direct bay views, terrace access and fully equipped wet bars, one on each level. The spectacular Great Room has sweeping bay views, a grand fireplace, tile flooring, skylights, soaring 26' ceilings and magnificent staircase. The exterior features Keystone lime trim, rapid-heating enclosed pool and spa, pool bath access, custom water feature and space for an outdoor kitchen. On the broad waterfront are recapped and recently inspected seawall and two boat lifts. Other highlights of this residence include an upper level Family Suite, elevator, media room, whole-house surround sound system and electronically controlled gated entry. The site is where the original home of Country Club Shores developer Edward Markham was. Seller is the original owner who is meticulous with maintenance.
